At Life Stage Films, we believe that every family has a story worth telling—an heirloom of memories, values, and wisdom that should never fade away. Through Legacy Stories, we capture your family’s history, but most importantly it’s heart and voice, through professionally filmed and deeply personal conversations, allowing loved ones to share their journeys, successes, lessons learned, childhood memories, and family traditions.
This isn’t an end-of-life project. This is a celebration of life now.
Too often, priceless family stories disappear with each passing generation. A Legacy Film ensures that your children, grandchildren, and future family members can see, hear, and feel the spirit of their loved ones—forever.
It’s a love letter to the people who mean the most to you, and a gift to those who come after you.
We start with a phone or Zoom call to understand what piqued your excitement and interest in such a unique gift. Who is this film for? What stories are most important to capture? Is it urgent or can we plan an event or experience surrounding this?
We help you gather old film reels, VHS tapes, family photos, and digital memories. Using AI technology, we can even remaster and add motion to these cherished documented moments that have been simply collecting dust.
We travel to you, creating a comfortable setting where stories unfold naturally. We craft engaging, heartfelt questions that unlock memories and wisdom to create a FULL day of heartfelt conversations that may have never been shared before.
Through a months long process, we meticulously weave together interviews, past footage, and beautiful cinematic visuals into a 20-30 minute mini-documentary that captures the heart of your family’s or loved ones impact on this world.
Many families assume a Legacy Film is just a chronological retelling of a person’s life. But what makes Legacy Films powerful is how they dive into the defining moments, values, struggles, and wisdom that shaped a life.

For when you know you need to get these conversations recorded now rather than later, but don’t have the need to invest in a creative story driven film. A raw, authentic, and unfiltered conversation. No edits, but it’s as the conversation unfolded, filmed in a warm beautiful setting with crystal clear audio. This multi-hour professionally filmed interview captures stories exactly as they are told—preserving the voice, wisdom, and emotions of your loved one in a simple yet powerful way.
Perfect for capturing life’s defining moments without the full documentary treatment. Your loved one’s personality, expressions, and voice come alive in a series of conversational, beautifully filmed videos that document their most meaningful memories. We then minimally edit but still organize each individual conversation and topic and title them for easy navigation and create individual video files for easy online sharing and storage. Think “60 Minutes” Interview – but for your family.
Our most immersive and emotionally rich experience. This mini-documentary features beautifully filmed interviews, cinematic visuals, past family footage, and enhanced memories in a story-driven masterpiece. We take what we film and organize from the “Chaptered” option, and take it a step further by using your provided digitized past photos and home videos to tell a creative, emotional, 20-25 minute family story. Think ESPN’s ‘30 for 30’—but for your family.
Your films aren’t about preserving memories for after someone is gone; they’re about honoring and capturing their story while they’re still here in a way that feels vibrant and alive.
Legacy Films aren’t just videos. They’re heirlooms, time capsules of love, wisdom, and identity that will outlast us all. If you’re hesitant about the cost, unsure if your family has a “story worth telling,” or worried about being on camera—here’s why you should invest in a Legacy Film today.
Reality check: Every day is a gift. Waiting until “the right time” is the biggest mistake families make. A Legacy Film ensures that when the moment comes—you won’t wish you had done it sooner.
Every family has extraordinary stories—even if they don’t realize it yet. The right questions bring them to life. We create conversations, not interviews, unlocking wisdom, humor, and moments nobody knew were there.
Can you imagine sitting across from your great-grandparents today and hearing their life stories? A Legacy Film gives your children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren the same priceless gift—a window into their roots.
A Legacy Film isn’t just about the words spoken. It’s the way someone laughs, the sparkle in their eye, the warmth of their voice—all things that can never be captured in a photo album or letter.
Good news: this is NOT a high-pressure production. It’s a relaxed, guided conversation in a comfortable setting. Within minutes, you’ll forget the camera is even there—just like thousands of people we’ve filmed before.
Unlike a vacation, a car, or a home renovation, a Legacy Film only becomes more valuable with time. One day, it will be the most treasured thing your family owns.
This isn’t just for billionaires—it’s for families who value their history. We offer different investment levels, from high-end productions to simple “Captured Conversations” that ensure your story is preserved, no matter your budget.
Too many families wait until it’s too late. Legacy Films are about capturing life, wisdom, and joy NOW—while your loved ones are here to tell their own story.
Nobody has ever said, “I wish we hadn’t recorded Grandpa’s story.” But plenty of families regret never hitting record. This is your chance to preserve something priceless, while you still can.
At the end of the day, family is what matters most. A Legacy Film is more than a video—it’s a love letter to the people who mean the most to you, and a gift to those who come after you.
Don’t wait. Invest in your family’s history now. Whether it’s a full documentary or just getting the conversation captured, you’ll never regret preserving these moments.
Chatting with us is easy (and honestly, a lot of fun!). We travel coast to coast to capture these stories—no family is too far.
